Yes I should have wrote ada1p1, I mis-typed

It does not show ada1 at all nothing is returned.

Nothing doing..., FreeBSD already trashed the ntfs once.

  I can not do a newfs -U /dev/ada1p2 when it does not exist.

The partition is there (ada1p2) win7 sees it FreeBSD only show /dev/ada1 
and nothing else.

gpart show ada1
